Product details

Its 16 A rated continuous current Iu holds steady from 40 °C up to 50 °C without derating — at 55 °C it still carries 15.36 A, and at 70 °C it's still good for 14.4 A. That thermal curve matters when you're packing breakers into a warm enclosure and need to know your actual headroom without guessing. The interrupting ratings tell you where this breaker can live: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. The 75.6 kA at 415 V covers most European industrial distribution, and the 690 V figure is there for the odd 690 V line but drops to 11.9 kA, so check your available fault current before committing. The shunt trip (STL) is built in, so you can remotely trip the breaker from an E-stop or safety relay. No undervoltage release, no auxiliary contacts, no ground fault monitoring, no communication module. This is a straightforward line-protection breaker, not a metering or smart device.

The breaker measures 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, and 70 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits most DIN-rail or panel-mount enclosures without surprises. The shunt trip coil is wired separately — verify polarity if it's a DC coil, and confirm the control voltage matches your safety circuit.

Frequently asked questions

Who supplies 3VA1196-4EF36-0HA0 and how is it quoted for volume purchases?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent industrial distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock figures or price lists are published here.

What is 3VA1196-4EF36-0HA0's interrupting rating at 240 V?

It's rated 121 kA at 240 V, which covers high-fault-capacity distribution panels downstream of large transformers.

Does this MCCB include auxiliary contacts or a communication module?

No. It ships without auxiliary contacts and without any communication function. The only integrated release is the shunt trip (STL).
